A Home Reno Primer for Brooklyn and the Hudson Valley

A Home Reno Primer for Brooklyn and the Hudson Valley

For anyone who is looking to renovate their space in the city or upstate (and for all the HGTV fans who live for dramatic before-and-after photos), we’ve been working on a big home reno story for Brooklyn Based.

We recently wrapped up a gut renovation here in Brooklyn with the help of Chris Dameron from Dameron Architecture and Nick Biziouras from Lambo Construction and Design, and they were kind enough to share their thoughts on how to hire a team, save money, consider healthy materials, re-think air-circulation, and turn your dream home into a reality.

I loved working with these guys, and I’m so excited to share this project with you. Dameron Architecture is currently taking on projects in the Catskills and Hudson Valley, and Lambo is accepting projects in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens—so if you’ve got a fixer-upper, I’d be glad to be a reference. (This is NOT a sponsored post— I’m just a happy client!) You can reach me through the comments or message me via Instagram, where I’ll be posting some beautiful/horrifying behind-the-scenes photos.
